Probably my last post from this side of the world

Well, tomorrow we board the plane and fade away into the sky.
Are we ready?!?!? Well, no not really but we are close. After going to every branch of our bank within a 50 mile radius we think we might have enough crisp bills to be able to eat and live to the end of our trip. Next time, (har), we order the bills a month in advance and get new bills and go to the bank twice (once to order, once to pick up). And not be trying to refinance a house before we go. For the most part (other than the first branch) people were VERY helpful--- and always asked TONS of questions. Can't tell you HOW MANY times we told our story. Mostly I'm happy to do that but yesterday I was just tired and it became tedious. :)
We are mostly packed, trying to fit the last little things in and not pop zippers. LOL We've trimmed the clothes down to next to nothing (and nice "SDA and court clothes") Got most of the electronic things and "entertainment." Now if we can just get a couple trains ("choo choo rains") and books in for Elijah.
The house could use a good once-over and that is what we need to do today. That and make a list of email addresses and phone numbers to take with us.
So, until we cross the pond....
